Tormented Soul

I am a girl
Who was in a world
Where night never ended
Separated from family
Was my true fate
As we walked toward the pit of hate
Minutes went by
While my mom sang me a lullaby
Of heaven's sweet melody
But then,
Where has the melody gone?
Why did it leave us
At the crack of dawn
Where is God to stop all of the suffering
That these people have caused
Why is He is allowing this
Watching us die
Just thinking He left us
Makes me want to cry
But I must be strong
I must hold on
To show God that I am loyal
So I may be in the presence of the royal
Father, Son, and Ghost
Yet my soul is being tormented
With the question
Why must I die

I'll take Alone In This World.
It might take me a day or so, but I'll have it in.

Thanks. :]

Alone in this world.

The place I once called home,
disappeared, along with my faith.
The thing I once called love;
left me alone in this world.

Forevermore, it takes my breath away.
Forevermore, it steals my happiness.
Forevermore, my life is replaced with..
the dreadful memories of what has been.

She said she would wait,
and day by day she did.
But, as I spent my time,
losing my own soul...

She created her own world.
She spent days and nights praying,
and days and nights fighting for,
what should and could have been.

She told me not to go,
But, if I did she'd always love me.
Her lies still haunt me
'til this very day.

For, as I shot down people in that tiny camp,
I lost the one I was fighting for.
And, after I lost all but my heart,
I lost the one I was waiting for.

Her smile kept me awake,
the thought of her touch
was a never ending cycle,
until the day I returned home..
To find myself..
alone in this world.

It's definitely not my best. :/

Last Words-

Contest ends when all remaining titles are taken and completed.

can I reserve Trapped in this Cage I will get it done ASAP

alrite its taking me a bit longer than I thought to get this done but it will be in eventually

I will do helpless souls as my 2nd or 3rd if it's ok. And is it also ok if i do it from the perspective of a Nazi?

Can tormented soul count for that one and Why? I thought it fit both topics.

I wrote this from a german soldiers perspective.

Helpless Souls

Brainwashed into the evil
We pretend to be their friends
Then we go and turn around
And tell them this is where it ends
I march forward to the next house
Screaming from the op of my lungs
Until every last one runs out
They are the ones to blame for the war
For every misfortune we've had
So now we load them in cattle cars
Seeing them weep makes us glad
It's long trip to the next camp
And when we throw a piece of bread in
What a sight to watch them trample
Over eachother
We unload those helpless souls out of there
And sort them by life and death
I take the ones who get to live on
And leave behind the ones with their final breath
We make them run to see how fit
Each one is and if they can make it
Watching these helpless souls die
Sometimes makes me want to cry
But I must be strong
and I must hold on
So I can make them disappear
Those helpless souls who live in fear
And who were the cause of everything destroid
That I hold close and dear

enter in as many as you please.
and each poem only counts for the title you choose.

Anguished Screams-

Unbearable Agony-

Conest is closed when all remaining titles are taken! Let`s get the winners chosen and have the last 3 titles taken!

I will take why and do it when I get back which is in like, 5 hours!!! I'll write it in the car and hen submit it.

Here it is. It's not very good but that's ok.

Why?

God,
Why are you letting them do this?
Make us go see you too early
If I had one simple wish
It would be to know
Why?
Why must my mother cry like this
And sing the death song so soon?
Why did she say give her one final kiss?
Why must I hear the screams of torture?
See everyone's pain?
God, I want my family
Why must I experience going insane?
It's getting hotter
Getting lighter
Why must I watch my people getting Slaughtered?
How could you put me through this?
The one question I ask is
Why?

Here, I'm doing Unbearable Agony

Unbearable Agony

Pushed beyond his limit,
A young man stands there,
A strong and healthy youth,
Onn top of the bridge,
As he stands there,
He thinks of everything that has happened to him,
Everything he has done to them
He has tortured people, abused people, and killed many people
Now he can't even remember what he was killing them for
Brainwashed by an evil man,
He killed mercillesly for years without any feeling of regret.
He wonders now if he even has a soul anymore
He thinks of how many lives he took,
How many families he ruined,
How much misery and despair he brought on people
All of the pain and suffering he caused,
And now he feels no sense of joy or happiness
He has stripped himself of all emotion
He finds that he can no longer love,
No longer cry, no longer mourn
He has ruined his life,
And now he has only one option
As he stands here on top of this bridge,
He hears all of the screams of the people he killed burning in the fire.
He hears their screams as he plunges into the depths of the sea,
Drawing his last breath in this cruel, dark world.

Trapped In This Cage

I remember from when I was little,
Dad telling me they were all the same,
A disgrace to all humanity,
And from where all our troubles came.

I remember going to all of the meetings,
Holding my hand up proud in the air,
And when talks of war were floating around,
I was pleased and did not care.

I wore the swastika with grace and pride,
Pinned right across my heart,
If only I knew that that tiny image,
Would be tearing my world apart.

Today I met a friend,
And with that I locked my cell,
My mind now clouded with confusion and smoke,
My ears constantly ringing like the church’s bell.

Now in showing my prized swastika,
It brings pain to my best friend’s eyes,
But in hiding this badge of suffering,
A part of my faith is disguised.

So I’m trapped in this cage of confusion,
With my faith being torn in two,
But I guess that’s what’s expected,
When a Nazi befriends a Jew.
